SKF has been involved with magnetic bearings since 1998 when 40% of Revolve Magnetic Bearings Inc (Revolve) of Calgary, Alberta, Canada was acquired. In 2000 SKF completed the transaction by making Revolve a fully owned subsidiary of the SKF Group. In 2008 SKF expanded its capabilities in magnetic bearing technology by purchasing S2M Magnetic Bearings and High Speed Motors of Vernon, France. The result of these acquisitions has made SKF the global leader in magnetic bearing technology, supply and service.
